Love and Economics
BY MA MINGWEI
You satirize women to build love on solid economic foundation
You disparage men who desire for love after went bankrupt
You abuse prostitutes for living by sharing their superficial phys-
ical love
But you yearn for love to bring you enough bread and a magnif-
icent castle
You still think that love has no meaning to economics?
You still believe that money is not worth mentioning in front of
true love.
You still tell me that money brings too many crises and worries
to love.
But you buy girls to drink with you,
keep giving jewelries to your mistress,
spend huge amount of money on big banquets just for your
dating.
Please wake up,
without the spectacular wealth of Gatsby, his lover will never
return to his side.
without the desire and memory of love, Gatsby will be an ordi-
nary and poor soldier for his whole life.
Please stand up,
